FIRST AID MEASURES General When possible, have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or doctor or going for treatment. Eye Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. skin Ingestion Inhalation Notes to physician Treatment Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Rinse out mouth and give water in small sips to drink. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. DO NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by a physician or poison control center. Move to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. There is no specific antidote. Appropriate supportive and symptomatic treatment as indicated by the patient's condition is recommended. SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash point > 65 C / > 149 F Autoignition temperature 430 C / 806 F Lower Flammability Limit Upper Flammability Limit Page 2 of 9

3 Explosiveness Fire and Explosion Hazards Suitable extinguishing media Fire Fighting Instructions Not explosive 92/69/EEC, A.14 / OECD 113 In the event of fire the following may be released: Hydrogen cyanide (hydrocyanic acid) Carbon monoxide (CO) Nitrogen oxides (NOx) Water spray, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Sand Contain the spread of the fire-fighting media. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses. Firefighters should wear NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions Methods for cleaning up Additional advice Keep unauthorized people away. Isolate hazard area. Avoid contact with spilled product or contaminated surfaces. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Collect and transfer the product into a properly labelled and tightly closed container. Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly, observing environmental regulations. Use personal protective equipment. Do not allow to enter soil, waterways or waste water canal. SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling procedures Use only in area provided with appropriate exhaust ventilation. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Storing Procedures Store in a cool, dry place and in such a manner as to prevent cross contamination with other crop protection products, fertilizers, food, and feed. Store in original container and out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked storage area. Protect from freezing. Work/Hygienic Procedures Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, using the toilet or applying cosmetics. Remove Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) immediately after handling this product. Before removing gloves clean them with soap and water. Remove Page 3 of 9

4 soiled clothing immediately and clean thoroughly before using again. Wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION General Protection Train employees in safe use of the product. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables, use detergent and warm/tepid water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Eye/Face Protection Hand protection Body Protection Respiratory protection Safety glasses with side-shields Chemical resistant nitrile rubber gloves Wear long-sleeved shirt and long pants and shoes plus socks. When respirators are required, select NIOSH approved equipment based on actual or potential airborne concentrations and in accordance with the appropriate regulatory standards and/or industry recommendations.

SECTION 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Acute toxicity studies have been bridged from a similar formulation containing a similar percentage of the active ingredients. The non-acute information pertains to the technical-grade active ingredients. Acute oral toxicity Acute dermal toxicity rat: LD50: > 2,000 mg/kg rat: LD50: > 2,000 mg/kg Page 5 of 9

6 Acute inhalation toxicity Skin irritation Eye irritation Sensitisation Chronic toxicity rat: LC50: > 1.9 mg/l Exposure time: 4 h Determined in the form of liquid aerosol. Highest attainable concentration. No deaths rabbit: No skin irritation rabbit: Mild eye irritation. mouse: Non-sensitizing. OECD Test Guideline 429, local lymph node assay (LLNA) Fluopyram caused specific target organ toxicity in the liver in experimental animal studies. The effect is due to an overwhelmed metabolic capacity of the liver at high dose levels. Tebuconazole did not cause specific target organ toxicity in experimental animal studies. Assessment Carcinogenicity Fluopyram caused an increased incidence of tumours in the liver of rats at high dose levels. Fluopyram caused an increased incidence of tumours in the thyroid of mice. The tumours seen with Fluopyram were caused through a non-genotoxic mechanism, which is not relevant at low doses. The mechanism that triggers tumours in rodents and the type of tumours observed are not relevant to humans. Tebuconazole caused an increased incidence of tumours in the liver of mice at high dose levels. The mechanism of tumour formation in the liver of the mice is not considered to be relevant to man. ACGIH NTP IARC OSHA Reproductive toxicity Fluopyram caused reproduction toxicity in a two-generation study in rats only at dose levels also toxic to the parent animals. The reproduction toxicity seen with Fluopyram is related to general toxicity. Tebuconazole caused reproduction toxicity in a two-generation study in rats only at dose levels also toxic to the parent animals. The reproduction toxicity seen with Tebuconazole is related to general toxicity. Page 6 of 9

7 Developmental Toxicity Fluopyram caused developmental toxicity only at dose levels toxic to the dams. The developmental effects seen with Fluopyram are related to maternal toxicity. Tebuconazole caused developmental toxicity only at dose levels toxic to the dams. Tebuconazole caused an increased incidence of post implantation losses, an increased incidence of non-specific malformations. Mutagenicity Fluopyram was not mutagenic or genotoxic in a battery of in vitro and in vivo tests. Tebuconazole was not mutagenic or genotoxic in a battery of in vitro and in vivo tests. SECTION 12.
